Inspection procedure
Hint:
if different dtcs related to different systems that have terminal e2
as the ground terminal are output
simultaneously, terminal e2 may be open.

Hood
Adjustment
Hint:
since the centering bolt is used as a hood hinge and hood lock
set bolt, the hood and hood lock can not be adjusted with it on.
Substitute a bolt with washer for the centering bolt.
